That worked, though I had to turn to Ian Ward's HOWTO to get the syntax
right, or to understand what specific values I should enter, running the
following: 

/usr/sbin/lpadmin -p Laser -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -P /root/laser.ppd
/usr/bin/enable Laser
/usr/sbin/accept Laser
/usr/sbin/lpadmin -d Laser

After replacing 'Laser' and 'parallel:/dev/lp0' with the values in my
system, the printing worked right off. 

Thanks for your collective help!
